That might be the intent, but the problem is that integrating any non-free software to a bigger project becomes problematic because the combined project likely becomes non-free. Which is most apparent in that these non-free components will not be appearing on any major distros main repositories.
So the non-free software remains an isolated island rather than melding smoothly into the larger ecosystem. And this has impact well beyond some SaaS providers.
